Everyone of us has a dream ROLE in the society and we aim to fulfill that stature in our lives. We wish to be SOMEBODY with dignity and honor. A person with substance and value. Our world is a mixture of diversities and complexities but at the end of the day... we will find ourselves clinging to the arms of our family who are always there to bring out the BEST in us that NOBODY else can.

We go HOME and whatever failures or achievements we attained... our family is our ultimate shock-absorber. Our parents... our dear MOTHER is our critic and avid fan at the same time.

This is my own little way of giving recognition to the most rewarding role of all... Being a mother. A mother, either working or just plain housewife holds the most duties and responsibilities. Motherhood, a versatile career... a lifetime commitment.

Mother... The LIGHT of every home.

HELPER - she never fails to support her children and give them the proper advises when needed. She never hesitate to extend her warm embrace. She helps in any way she can.

My mother-in-law

Mother being a...RESEARCHER - she is capable of finding out the cheapest, most affordable yet high quality deals in the market. Education is the parents' priority when it comes to giving their children the best future. A mother assures the safety of her children. She should know the schools that provide full protection and strict guidance to students. She is a researcher of the best possible way to bring her family intact and unharmed. She should know where to go and ask for assistance when the head of the family is out working for a living, A mother should be resourceful and independent... cares to seek knowledge through reading or watching informative programs that may further improve her intellectual abilities.

I know that these traits are just few of the many characteristics that a mother may possess. There are a lot more... actually there's million more. Motherhood is the most difficult task a woman can handle. Motherhood is not a one day household chore but a lifetime responsibility that requires STRENGTH and FAITH in order to be fully served.
